The Alpha Site is always the name for my new home page. Each time I revise it the new edition is temporarily dubbed this.

Development Site

To Do

• Fix image browser tag

---

Completed

• 24.08.07
• Changed the code for the sites HTML title tag. The wiki pages displayed the title in it's mumps form i.e. “TheAlphaSite", now it shows it broken up “The Alpha Site” which I'm hoping will help with search engine hits.
• 16.08.07
• Updated wiki Flash action to also use UFO since I forgot to do that last time around, also updated the Atlantis DHD Addresses page to use the new action since it was still set to use the old Flash outputting method
• 05.08.07
• Updated wiki and blog headers to use UFO for Flash output, much better :¬)
• 14.05.07
• Added Cap Tcha to wiki comments section, actually made a whole new wiki action for it which I posted to the main wacko wiki hacks n patches page.
• Made an update there to my hidden content action to allow for alt text bringing it to v1.1
• 25.03.07
• Updated blog anti-spam setup
• 07.01.07
• Hid dates on Links page
• Added Reviews category
• Put link to BT Home Hub review on blog
• Setup 2nd no-ip account on server
• 06.01.07
• Renamed ALL page titles so they have David Millington in the title bar 
• Added ' in landing pages David Millingtons since google seemed to think “Millingtons” doesn't contain “Millington”
• Downgraded Apache – this latest version (2.2.3) is bugged with no sign of a fix coming along
• Reconfigured SVN 
• 12.08.06
• Stopped using external images – this is to do with the bottom of the page images such as RSS and XML etc. They are linked to the official sites and can take ages to load meaning the page looks like its loading for ages. Its well annoying. They say not to do this but I'm going to take the chance and be a rebel :¬)
• 15.06.06
• Change wiki menu system – Implemented a breadcrumb navigation across the entire wiki so all sub pages have links back to the route of their page heirarchy. Hoping this will make the pages more trawlable in the search engines but more importantly i hope it makes navigating easier. some heirarchies where getting to be like 5 levels down which sucked as each page only had a link to its immediate parent.
• The image browser problem seems to be down to a bug in the wiki engine. I spent ages going through the source and cant seem to find a way to fix it. Theres a point during page rendering that it looks at the conent and says “ok, this is an x type of page” and it wraps it in a kind of master div that sets certain properties. For some reason its detecting the wrong thing for the image browser action. Until its fixed it makes the pages have invalid xhtml which is why the header titles are being corrupted. The problem with the wrapper is that the current one is wrapping the whole content in a single big p tag and i dont want it to do that since you should have tables in p tags, its not valid. I'll tackle this again later but for now I've spent too much time on it.
• 04.06.06
• Add links to landing page – Trying this out to see if it helps the search engines crawl the site, cant do any harm right? (course it can!)
• 30.05.06
• Implement new image browser – it was a pain in the ass sorting out the images for the Stargate projects concept art section so I made a handy image folder browser module for wacko wiki. Well I took the original idea from someone elses module which relied on uploaded images and altered it to fit my needs
• 11.05.06
• Implement Adobes recommened Java Script Flash solution – actually rewrote it to output “Satay Method” style code, see here for more information ;¬)
